Celebrating strength and courage of refugees

Refugee week is celebrated on 20 June. Today is the World Refugee Day too. We celebrate the strength and courage of people who have been forced to flee their home country to escape conflict or persecution. World Refugee Day is an occasion to build empathy and understanding for their plight and to recognize their resilience in rebuilding their lives. Thabarajah Thayaparan in Brisbane, Basker Sathyamoorthy in Perth, Saradha Ramanathan and Selva in Sydney share their views on the policies on Refugees and Asylum Seekers. Produced by RaySel.
